At Numazu Port, which is the "gateway" of Izu, a shirasu specialty store "Suruga Bay Jewels Shirasu Fishing Boat" has opened. Fresh "seafood" such as "raw shirasu" on the signboard menu is offered.


At the "Suruga Bay Jewel Shirasu Fishing Boat", the "Morning Shirasu" that has just started in the morning will be served on the same day. Fresh shirasu procured directly from Yui Port, Tagonoura Port, Shimizu Port, and Numazu Port is said to have a "prepared" texture.

The menu includes "Shirasu" (1,000 yen), which is a bowl of freshly washed raw shirasu on rice, and "Oki-zuke shirasu", which is made by fried raw shirasu and soaked in a special sauce. "Eat all three color bowls" (1,382 yen) are also available.

Another signboard menu of the shop is "Sakura shrimp". Raw sakura shrimp eaten in Suruga Bay, Japan's only fishing ground for sakura shrimp, is said to enjoy the sweetness and umami condensed in the clear red body and the fresh texture. A bowl of "Korezo Suruga!" (1,490 yen), which is a combination of sakura shrimp, raw shirasu, and fried shirasu, is also offered.


The store is located at 97 Senbonminatocho, Numazu City, Shizuoka Prefecture. Business hours are from 10:00 to 15:00.
